A job well done

A job well doneRegarding “Winchester water woes,”

Too often we hear stories about municipal workers hanging around doing nothing.
We never hear about the times when they earn their
money, so here goes: Having been in underground utility construction for
the better part of 45 years, I would like to commend Rick Meleski, Dale
Grey and their crews for doing a great job under adverse conditions.
These guys deserve a big “attaboy” for a job well done

Adverse conditions ? You gotta be kidding me, a little rain and these guys should get a medal? Then they leave the town's main street looking like crap for nearly 2 weeks before they finish the job, yeah give em all a pat on the back. Oh yaeh, can someone tell me why we have two guys and a cop directing traffic all within 20 feet of each other and why 3 more "workers" are standing around watching all the while getting paid?

About Me

I am part of a group of Winchester citizens completely opposed to dirty and hazardous businesses, like asphalt and wood burning plants wanting to come into town at the expense of our quality of life. I am concerned about preserving the rural character of Winchester. These types of development have no benefits for Winchester citizens and they create many health hazards and will cause the destruction of green space. Our Winchester is known for its precious natural resources; dramatic rocky slopes, unique wetlands and abundant wildlife. I feel there are many questions concerning these proposed projects that outweigh any benefits. The increase in traffic along existing streets and noise and air pollution would be very significant. I am also concerned that the town infrastructure cannot cope with the problems these types of businesses will demand. Furthermore, I am very discouraged with the Planning Board and Zoning Boards and feel they have been negligent in their duties to protect neighboring residents from health hazards and safety issues that will surely arise and affect the lives and livelihoods of many citizens.
